I can swear a lot, I hope to listen and to contribute in my own way about politics, science and anything else that takes my fancy
Remembrance Day
Today I remember my father James Cameron McPhee and my uncle John Cameron McPhee who both fought in WW2
My great uncles Sandy Sutherland and James Sutherland who fought in WW1. James sadly died in the Great War after Sandy retrieved him from no man’s land and carried him back

One Trillion dollars over 10 years
That’s two Billion a week
Certainly puts my wage into perspective
It’s disgusting and yes there’s caveats but 2,000,000,000 a week is obscene

Yet again America
How many kids must die on the altar of the 2nd amendment before you realise that guns don’t belong in the hands of everyone

Trump announces he’s going to meet Putin face to face, getting his orders first hand now!

The white South African ‘refugees’ from what I’ve seen have spread their wings into various industries, some have actually gone to work on farms
ICE detained them 🤪 when they showed up for work

Politics used to be boring now its judged on it’s entertainment value, personality cults.
It’s all veneer and no substance, it’s not about how they’ll make our lives better it’s about banter, appealing to our basest prejudices
Lying has become synonymous with political success
We’re fucked

When an idiot proves they’re idiotic we believe them
When a moron does something moronic we understand they’re a moron
But when a narcissist, rapist, embezzler, racist and incompetent liar proves that they’re all of the above why did 77M Americans decide we’ll have some of that!
It’s a cult

Looking at America from the outside it seems to me that it’s fallen.
No longer does the rule of law exist except when it favours the fascists.
The complicity of law enforcement in the protection of political criminality does not bear well for democracy in America.
Opposition is building however

One for the astronomers
We know the speed of light in a vacuum is constant 300,000km per sec but if in interstellar space away from a gravitational mass time runs faster even slightly does this mean that light slows to remain at the speed of light?

I wonder if the national guard and the marines on alert for deployment to LA realise they are now the stormtroopers

Question
Is what Israel did, taking a ship by force in international waters, an act of piracy?
Question
Has Trump now, by his actions in LA, declared war on the American people?
Both are illegal acts and both are tests to see just how far they can go without condemnation, therefore the answer is yes

Is the situation in LA equivalent to fort Sumpter?

I hate the term Banana Republic but ever it was pertinent it’s now the USA

Trumps threat of 50% tariffs on the EU is a toddlers tantrum because Greenland has issued a 30yr permit for a Franco/Danish consortium to extract minerals.
Art of the deal 🤪🤪🤪🤪

Nostalgic food
When I was a kid my mum would bake every Saturday, a cake, pies and jam tarts, the usual things but also sausage rolls with actual sausages @elainezinsane66.bsky.social has taken up that mantle.
She’s currently making Cumberland sausage rolls, the smells are taking me back in time

America
Maga would welcome a theocracy, a Christian theocracy but the question is which church?
Now I think any kind of theocracy is completely idiotic but the question still stands would it be catholic, Mormon or Scientology etc?
Watch them lose their shit arguing over this.
My guess Trumpist

The electoral stupidity continues, not just an American condition, it’s been infectious in Britain for a couple of decades now and by last nights results, the vaccine is still not working

America
Release the criminals jail the judges
What the hell could go wrong in this scenario?
Leadership is setting an example, Trump’s example is fuck the law, so the question is simple, is America now lawless?
